Table 1 Results of the treadmill CMR test in 19 healthy subjects. The heart rate at peak exercise and start of imaging is expressed as %MPHR. The times from end of exercise to start of imaging, from end of exercise to end of function imaging, and from end of exercise to peak myocardial enhancement are shown.

From: Cardiac function and myocardial perfusion immediately following maximal treadmill exercise inside the MRI room
